Im with the oppo fans on this. I cringe when I hear us described as champions. That infers we won the league. We're challenge cup winners.
Dictionary or not it sounds ridiculous.

Your never referred to as champions when you have won a cup competition. Ive never seen it before and I dont why we have picked it up? Have previous winning teams fans done this? Never heard of it in the FA Cup.
Wire YED this is my irrate and pointless rant of the moment  I always like to have one on the go. |

I just happened to type that in and it came up with a site of FA Cup Champions.
Or there is this site bluechampions.com/2009/05/31/che ... ions-0809/
Which refers to Chelsea as The FA Cup Champions 08/09.
You make it sound like the Super League is the Only competition which has a "Champion". |

So you were the one who kicked off when We are the champions was being played at wembley? No, I didn't think so. I bet you joined in just like the rest of us present that day. |

They also played hi-ho silver lining, but we're not Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Of course I was at Wembley and singing the song like everyone else.
Anyway its a pointless argument but as Ulster Wire said no one ever calls the Cup winners "Champions" when there is a league competition in place of it. As in Football the league competition winners are Champions, then you have FA Cup and Carling Cup winners. Whoever win the Champions League is obviously Champions of Europe as there is no league competition in its place. |

First bit of silverware in 18 years, and we're moaning whether we're winners or champions. Who gives a flying ?
Peace and love, peace and love.

God (thats TS to you) would have picked somebody from Wakefield for England but that player moved to Warrington!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good job he's not fit otherwise we would have SIX in the squad.

Or there is this site
American site. They arent even calling the respective sport by its proper name  . In the UK Ive never heard on TV or other media or even amongst other fans referring to cup winners as champions.
If you said to someone with no RL knowledge that Wire were "champions" they would immediately assume we had won our league competition.
When people use the term it sounds like were trying to pass ourselves off as SL winners. Probably not the case but its what it sounds like.
Agree to Disagree?
